Posted by: Adina in Games

Dell announced today that its premium-priced, top-tier offering will bump to the XPS 720 H2C; along with the model number change, this model offers more overclocking options on Intel chips.
Like the XPS 710 H2C before it, this new model features Dell's unique designed ceramic water cooling system.
The system has two Intel Core 2 Extreme quad-core CPU options: the QX6700, which can be overclocked to 3.46 GHz, and the QX6800, which can be overclocked to 3.73 GHz at the factory.
Also in Bios one can go in and tweak it as high as bin +5, about 3.93 GHz clockspeed, and Dell will support it having safeguards to protect against catastrophic failure.
Among other new improved features this system has are the nVidia nForce 680i SLI and nVidia's 8800 Ultra graphics; a Blu-ray Disc burner; and support for RAID 0+1 and RAID 5 configurations among the system's maximum of four hard disk drives.
Concerning this issue Dell will offer Hitachi's 7K1000 1TB hard drive as an option; and the RAID configurations are both available even if you choose Dell's DataSafe option for disk backup.
The XPS 720 H2C's has also improvements in the graphic field. Now you can select actual lighting effects, where, in some applications, the lights adapt to what's going on on-screen.
